In order to ensure the safety of all students, respect for our neighborhood, and adherence to traffic regulations, all students must be dropped off and picked up at campus locations designated by the Administration. All students, regardless of their means of commuting, are covered by the mandatory governmental accident insurance on their direct way to and from school. However, this does not relieve a driver of a private car transporting students to and from school or to school-related activities of the responsibility to carry the appropriate accident and liability insurance. Under German law, individual drivers assume the risk in transporting others. The school is not responsible for student safety in any instances when students ride in private vehicles, including car pools arranged by parents or students transporting students to and from school.
